Upon hearing this, Mr. Liu looked embarrassed.

"Instead of pinning your hopes on him, you might as well lead others to work overtime on the experiment!"

Seeing this, Elder Xue shook his head and said, "Now foreign forces are rampant, and I don't know what disasters they are brewing. If we can't overcome this difficulty as soon as possible and research new mushrooms to prove the strength of our Xia country, I'm afraid the border will be..."

Mr. Xue did not say the rest.

But the implication is already very clear.

A weak country has no diplomacy!

Once everyone knows that a country is weak, everyone can bully it!

Xia Country is vast, with a border stretching for thousands of miles. It is not uncommon for small countries around it to seek trouble with the support of Western forces...

If they cannot change the situation of being backward and beaten, they can only passively endure the harassment from all sides!

Mr. Xue is very annoyed by this!

Every Xia citizen is outraged by this!

But……

Weakness is the original sin!

What can they do?

"I see!"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Liu took a deep breath, took the latest experimental data, turned around and walked out, "I will take people to continue the experiment now!"

Mr. Xue looked at Mr. Liu's leaving back and sighed silently.

Staying in the laboratory all year round, struggling with experimental data day and night, Mr. Liu is obviously ten years younger than him, but he already has a head full of white hair and a hunched body...

The hope of national rejuvenation rests on him. Mr. Xue knows the pressure he is under, but...

He couldn't help him!

All he could do for him was to provide him with a safe scientific research environment!

Besides that, there was really very little he could do to help him...

"Ding-ling-ling..."

Just as Mr. Liu walked out of the laboratory, the phone that Mr. Xue had placed on the table rang again.

"Hello?"

Mr. Xue picked up the phone.

"Lao Xue, it's me!"

Mr. Tan's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Where's Lao Liu? I have something important to tell him, go call him over!"

When Mr. Xue heard this, his expression froze.

Lao Tan’s voice is very excited!

Excited, even a little too excited!

Mr. Xue knew his good friend well. He was a very calm person. Even though he had been a little nervous recently, he was old enough and would not be so impulsive and act like a fool...

The point is, he was talking about important things…

What is the important thing you want to tell Lao Liu?

Xue Lao's mind raced as he thought of the phone call from Lao Tan. The next second...

"Lao Liu! Lao Liu, come back!"

Mr. Xue put down the phone and rushed out of the room, shouting at Mr. Liu in the corridor.

"What's wrong?"

When Mr. Liu heard his shout, he turned around, with confusion in his eyes, and changed his pace and walked towards him.

"Phone! It's Lao Tan's phone!"

Mr. Xue pointed at the phone in the room and said anxiously, "He said he has something important to talk to you about! He's talking to you!"

When Mr. Liu heard this, he said, “???”

He frowned and looked at Mr. Xue.

"What important matter could he have with me? Could it be that he has set his sights on my nephew again?"

As he was talking, Old Liu picked up the phone on the table and said, "Hello, Old Tan, it's fine if you're targeting Old Xue's nephew. I don't have any nephews, only a niece who was stolen away when she was born. If you have the guts to target her, remember to tell me..."

"What niece? Why would I target your niece?"

Hearing this, Mr. Tan on the other end of the phone asked anxiously, "I have something important to talk to you about. Are you safe now? Is there anyone around you?"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Liu stopped teasing and turned to look at Mr. Xue.

"Is Lao Xue considered a human being?"

As soon as he said this.

Mr. Xue stared.

Mr. Tan on the opposite side couldn't help laughing, "I don't know if he is a human being, but I can see that you want to be beaten!"

As he spoke, Mr. Tan's tone became extremely serious, and he said in a deep voice, "Send out outsiders, close the doors and windows! What I am going to say next is extremely important! Don't let any of it leak to the outside world!"

When Mr. Liu heard this, he said, “???”

A doubtful frown.

Mr. Xue has always been very active. When he heard the faint voice coming from the phone, he rushed out of the room one step ahead.

"Alert! Level 1 alert!"

While shouting "Be on guard", Mr. Xue closed the doors and windows and rushed back to Mr. Liu like a fly.

"Tell him he can say it!"

Elder Xue stared at the phone in Elder Liu's hand and said in a deep voice, "Tell him to speak quickly!"

As he said this, Mr. Xue's heart was pounding!

He had a hunch...

Intuitively, what Lao Tan is going to say next may be beyond his imagination...

Old Liu was stunned by Old Xue's nervous reaction and asked subconsciously, "What are you trying to do? Who said that we can't pin our hopes on Old Tan?"

The sound of soldiers' alert footsteps could be heard outside the door, sonorous and powerful.

"You're making such a big fuss. Aren't you afraid that it will be a false alarm later?"

"Even if it's just empty joy, as long as someone brings us joy, I'm willing to do it!"

Mr. Xue's deep voice came into the receiver.

"Haha! When you encounter problems, you still have to rely on Old Xue. That rough but thoughtful guy, it's no coincidence that he's still alive today!"

When Mr. Liu heard what Mr. Tan said, he snorted coldly and said, "Let's talk about business, don't delay my experiment!"

"good!"

Mr. Tan on the other end of the phone pulled Gu Nanzhi to his side and said, "I'll introduce a girl to you..."

Old Liu glared: "It's already this late, and you're still thinking of introducing a girl to me?"

He devoted himself to scientific research and never married!

For this reason, Lao Xue and Lao Tan, as well as his family and friends, have been committed to introducing girls to him, and have not stopped until now...

"You old pervert, the girl I'm talking about is not that girl!"

There came a roar from Mr. Tan on the other side, and then...

It was a female voice.

"Hello!"

Gu Nanzhi's voice was clear, cold and extremely calm.

Mr. Liu, who was holding the phone, was stunned.

Mr. Xue, who was standing next to him, heard a female voice coming from the other end of the phone and his face froze.

My heart, which was pounding just now, was suddenly poured with a bucket of cold water.

It gets cold in an instant!

Mr. Xue's face suddenly turned ugly, and he couldn't help but yell at the other end of the phone, "Old Tan, do you have anything else to do? You made us make such a big fuss just to introduce a girl to Old Liu? Old Liu is so old, and you are introducing him to a young girl. Do you have any shame?"

Mr. Xue shouted with righteous indignation.

Even Mr. Liu couldn't help but nod repeatedly.

That’s right!

He is over sixty!

The female voice on the other end was very young. What Old Tan did was indeed a bit too much!

Mr. Tan put the phone in Gu Nanzhi's hand, but he didn't leave. He stayed close to the receiver!

After hearing this, Mr. Tan immediately refused to do it!

"I've already said this girl is not that girl!"

"I'm warning you, quickly put away your old pervert, or I'm afraid you won't have a place to cry later!"

“…”

The roar of Mr. Tan was heard.

Mr. Xue and Mr. Liu couldn't help but burst out laughing.
